Socks with sandals? Are you 90 or living in Iowa?

 

LOL

Neither... Just got that gene (foot sensitive)... Sometimes go sockless but like my light breathable socks... Less sticky feet...

and... I'm not old but...

GET OFF MY LAWN!!!

 

Yeah... I did delete it. If you want to PM me these types of things have at it...

 

My last shot at an organized ride has been canceled. All for the best I guess.

 

Friggin @StrandLeper bought a 60 meter super yacht, and he's taking me to the Aegean, bitches!

 

Sounds kinky.

 

Small price to pay for a sail through the circle. Wait, that didn’t come out right!

 

Ain't gonna go IN right either!

 

His e-bike was rated for over 60 mph. Goofball admitted he probably should have spent some time reading the manual before juicing the throttle 100%.

The article also said his next door neighbor was also into the hot e-bike scene. But I’d bet Jason Statham can handle the juice!

 

Idiot. The instant torque could definitely spit you off the back if you're not expecting it.

 

(obviously) those M1Sportechnik bikes are beasts, and also the nicest crafted ones I've ever seen, like jewelry works of art.

 

Foly huck! This is the bike that broke Simon's back....

Yep and remember all the sweet talk by those who were backing e-bikes stating that they would never be allowed to break a certain, much lower, speed than this? This thing is basically an electric motorcycle and we are almost certainly going to be seeing these and others like it on our trails.

 

That’s a friggin moto

 

Be careful what you wish for

 

Why wouldn't you just buy a moto!?! Clearly, he cares about how he presents himself and can afford any moto he wants. I'd get something cooler like a

Vehicles like this, which has 20 HP and goes 80 mph, have been around for at least 10 years (look up Stealth Fighter), and I've never seen one on the trails. Doubt we will now. They're an anomaly and legal on private property and (maybe) off road "Jeep" trails. Additionally, they're not even street legal. IMO, the pedals make them more dangerous than pegs and provide a humorous touch to a useless piece of you know what.

 

Looks like the ultimate urban commuter to me. It is 3 miles from my house to my work, this would make that 3 miles a lot of fun. FWIW, I would never think of taking that thing on the trails.

 

If you want cool, might as well go all in.

 

Triumphs make me go all week in da knees

 

BTW, that bike's cost is $21,500, so don't expect to see many on the trails (or anyplace else where people still have brains).

 

Anyone else notice the dual disc brakes in the front. That pretty much says it all.

 

This is Hollywoodland. Southern California is made of money. I actually expect to see several out on the trails. That amount of money is chump change to a celebrity.

 

Can't wait to hear about the encounter; probably someone with a "star"on Hollywood Blvd. Two chances, slim and none and you know who left the building. The major OEM's (Haibike, Specialized, Trek, Giant, etc), that started manufacturing "e" long after uber-powerful DIY bikes were available, have continued to produce PAS, Class 1 or 3 (no throttle) since their inception, and exhibit no indication of straying from that concept.

 

The truth is, no e-bike is cheap. They cost more than a comparable mountain bike.

 

Similar? This one was on Jeep roads...

 

Serious question, why do they bother putting cranks and pedals on these? Im sure they're in unridable as a bicycle.
